Yeah, I am doing it these few days, creating demos and fixing some bugs along the way. Hopefully I can make a release this weekend. Nice job, BTW!

Re: assembly without solver
Cool, and thanx. May-be it would be useful to include git commit 55a4f78ad, that enables the "create Datum Coordinate System" (LCS) in the toolbar ? See here in the forumrealthunder wrote: ↑Fri Jan 18, 2019 11:13 pm Hopefully I can make a release this weekend. Nice job, BTW!
Also, how much work would it be to refine the "select Linked object" dialog, to show only Parts (App::Part objects) by default, and show all objects only when the "Show all object types" checkbox is actually checked ? It would make the workflow and tutorials more natural.
I didn't know about that, but it's quite exactly what I had in mind also. All that is needed now is a wider availability of a compatible FreeCAD release.
All good stuff, I'm eager to test the new release.

OK .... but does it need to be fully integrated into FreeCAD ? Like ... WTF does FreeCAD need a Web browser workbench ??? Shouldn't we keep things separated, but with a seamless workflow between FreeCAD and git, and everybody uses his favorite git client ? Or SVN, why not ? Or Mercurial, or whatever ?
Re: assembly without solver
Git have a feature called git-hooks:
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customiz ... -Git-Hooks
Imagine 10 people working on different files in the same assembly, once one user save their work, its automatically comitted and pushed and the assembly is instantly updated for all users ^_^
Regarding web workbench, i am sure someone can motivate it, but as we use QT and QT offers web functionality i can see that its easy and tempting to expose the functionality to users.
Webview is used for the startpage btw.

Re: assembly without solver
I haven't run into this in course work with Solidworks but it is part of classroom exercises in CREO. Basically we browsed to a manfactures website to directly download into CREO some fasteners that they provide from their catalogue in CREO format. I do not know what else but it maybe not that high a priority to have this.

The description explains it
"This workbench contains tools to interact with different web services. Current webservices include:
git logo Git: Manages the current document with Git.
bimserver logo BimServer: Connects and interacts with a BIM server instance.
sketchfab logo Sketchfab: Connects and uploads a model to a Sketchfab account."

everybody has the right to loose his time as he wants. Explains a lot, though ...
